Description

• William P. Clemmons was Professor of Christian Education. The service begins with organ music (00:00-04:10). C. Michael Hawn, professor of worship, leads in a responsive reading from Genesis 1, and he gives a word of prayer (04:11-05:56). Clemmons shares his testimony of his transition from growing up as a poor southerner to a Christian scholar, and he encourages the audience to take a view of liberating theology that gives a voice to those who are disenfranchised (05:57-25:50). Hawn preforms “I’ll Fly Away” on a fiddle (25:51-27:31). The service ends with a word of prayer (27:32-28:19).
